ABSTRACT

Objective:Verstaile free superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap(SCIAPF) were adopted for various reconstructive scenarios, and its clinical effect and value was evaluated.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on 42 patients with tissue defects admitted in the Department of Orthopeadic of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2015 to May 2019. Nine patients had injury in the foot, 8 in ankle, 8 in calf, 7 in forearm, 9 in hand, and 1 in the mouth. All of the defects were repaired by SCIAPF, including 28 single soft tissue defect wounds, 8 multiple soft tissue defect, and 6 composite defects. The size of soft tissue defect were 1.2 cm×1.8 cm-14.0 cm×20.8 cm. The size of flaps were 1.5 cm×2.0 cm-15.3 cm×22.3 cm. The patients entered follow up by outpatient clinic visit and telephone reviews to observe the survival of the flaps, functional recovery and complications.Results:In this series, there were 28 flaps, including 18 pedicled with superficia branch of superficial circumflex iliac artery, 2 pedicled with deep branch of superficial circumflex iliac artery, and 8 pedicled with 2 branches. Six were chimeric flaps. Among them, 4 flaps were iliac bone flaps with superficial branch of superficial circumflex iliac artery flaps, and 2 were superficial iliac circumflex artery flap with sartorius muscle flap. Eight cases were resurfaced with lobulated SCIAPF. Arterial anastomoses: end-to-side in 35 arteries and end-to-end in 7 arteries. Venous anastomosis: end-to-end in 27 veins and end-to-side in 15 veins. Venous return through superficial iliac circumflex vein in 25 flaps, through venae comitantes in 12 flaps and through both in 5 flaps. All flap donor sites were sutured directly. All flaps survived uneventfully except for one that compromised with end-to-side anastomotic dehiscence and bleeding, and survived after re-anastomosis. All flaps and donor sites healed primarily. During the follow-up of 6-24(mean, 11.5) months, the pliable flaps were ruddy in colour and soft in texture, without obvious bloatness and pigmentation. The donor site healed well with linear scars in 35 cases and mild scar hyperplasia in 7 cases. The donor hip function were normal. Three patients suffered a numbness of the thigh caused by intraoperative injury lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and it disappeared completely after 3 months.Conclusion:New applications of lobulated or chimeric SCIAPF, based on the SCIA vasculature or its branches, can meet most of the clinical repair requirement.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effects of neurotro-phin-3 ( NT-3 ) gene overexpression on the differentia-tion into cholinergic neuron of neural stem cells ( NSCs) in vitro and its underlying mechanism. Meth-ods Brain-derived NSCs from newborn mice were iso-lated and cultured in vitro and determined by immuno-fluorescence. The NSCs were divided into three groups: NSCs, GFP-NSCs and NT-3-NSCs groups. The expression of NT-3 was detected by immunofluo-rescence and ELISA. Then, the ability of NSCs on dif-ferentiation into cholinergic neuron was detected by im-munofluorescence and RT-PCR, and the Acetylcholine Assay Kit was used for acetylcholine ( ACh) , and the expression of Hes1 , Mash1 and Ngn1 mRNA was de-termined by RT-PCR. Results The neurosphere dis-played Nestin and Sox 2-postive by immunofluores-cence, suggesting that the cultured cells were NSCs. The proportion of ChAT immunopositive cells was sig-nificantly higher in the NT-3-NSCs group than that in the other two groups ( P <0. 01 ) . Ach secretion in NT-3-NSCs was significantly elevated compared with the other two groups ( P <0. 01 ) . NSCs transfected with NT-3 increased the levels of Mash1 and Ngn1 mR-NA, and decreased the level of Hes1 mRNA ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusion NT-3 can significantly promote the in vitro differentiation of NSCs into cholinergic neu-rons via probablly inhibiting Notch signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effects of osthole on the nerves in model mice with craniocerebral injury. METHODS:Mice models of craniocerebral injury were established by craniotomy drill. There was a sham-operation group(isomet-ric normal saline),a model group (isometric normal saline) and osthole high,mediu,low dose groups (30,20,10 mg/kg). The drugs were given to the mice 1 h after successful establishment of the models,ip,once a day,for consecutive 14 d. Neurological severity score was conducted for the mice 12 h,3 d,7 d,14 d and 21 d after the establishment of models;HE stain was conduct-ed 7 d and 14 d thereafter and the wounds areas of brain were observed by microscope;the activity of myeloperoxidase(MPO)in the homogenate of mice’s brain tissues were determined 1 d and 3 d after the establishment of models;immunohistochemical meth-od was adopted to determine the expressions of the brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF) and neurotrophic factor (NT) 3 in the mice’s brain tissues 7 d after the establishment of models. RESULTS:Compared with model group,the neurological severity scores of the mice in osthole high dose group and medium dose group were decreased 3 d,14 d and 21 d after the establishment of models;that in osthole high dose group were decreased 7 d after the establishment of models. The wounds areas of brain in osthole high dose group were smaller 7 d after the establishment of models;those in osthole high dose group and medium dose group were smaller 14 d after the establishment of models. The activity of MPO in the brain tissue in osthole high dose group was decreased 24 h and 72 h after the establishment of models.The expressions of the BDNF and NT-3 in the brain tissue homogenate in osthole high dose group and medium dose group were increased 7 d after the establishment of models,with significant differences(P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Osthole has certain protective effects on the nerves in mice with craniocerebral injury. The mechanism may be related to improving the mice’s neurological functions,promoting wound healing,inhibiting the production of inflammato-ry factors,increasing the expression of neurotrophic factors.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effect of osthole on neuron synapses infected APP gene and its underlying mechanism. Methods The neurons were divided into three groups:GFP, APP, APP+Ost groups. The neu-rons were infected APP gene with containing mutational site in vitro for mimicking the characterstics of Alzhei-mer’ s disease ( AD) . The cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 , the expression of synapsin-1 was deter-mined by immunofluorescence, and the concentration of PSD-95 and SYP were detected by ELISA. The ex-pressions of Aβ1-42 , CAMKK2 , phoshorylated AMPKα1 , AMPKα1 protein were determined by West-ern blot. Results Strong APP staining was visible in neurons infected with APP and abundant expression of Aβ1-42 , a neurotoxic oligomer. Compared with APP group, APP+Ost group significantly increased cell vi-ability, promoted the expression of synapsin-1, up-reg-ulated the concentration of PSD-95 and SYP, and de-creased the expressions of CAMKK2 and p-AMPKα1 . Conclusions Ost can protect the neuron synapses a-gainst infected with APP gene. Its neuroprotective effect may be related to inhibiting the CAMKK2/AMPK signal pathway.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effects of osthol on cell apoptosis and inflammatory cell infiltration after brain stab wound injury in mice. Methods The mice underwent the stab wound injury by a needle, then were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, osthol 10, 20, 30 mg · kg-1 treatment group. The main examinations included mice brain wa-ter content; the apoptotic cytokines Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3 mRNA expression were assessed by PT-PCR; immunohistochemistry staining was used to de-tect neutrophils (MPO) and microglia (Iba-1) infiltra-tion and Caspase-3 positive cell expression around in-jured lesions. Results Treatment with osthole 20, 30 mg·kg-1 group significantly reduced the water content in injured brain, improved the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2, and reduced the expression of apoptosis cytokine Caspase-3 mRNA. Osthole 30 mg·kg-1 treatment group obvious-ly reduced the infiltration of neutrophils and microglial cells and significantly reduced the number of apoptotic cells around the injured cerebral cortex. Conclusion Osthole has therapeutic effect on stab wound injury in mice, and the possible mechanism may be by reducing the infiltration of inflammatory cells and reducing apop-totic cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of osthole on neural stem cells ( NSCs) differentiation and explore the potential mechanism. Methods Brain-derived NSCs from newborn mice were isolated and cultured in vitro and determined by immunofluorescence. The P5 generations of NSCs were placed in culture solution with osthole at concentrations of (0,10,50, 100 μmol·L-1 ) . The neuron, astrocyte and oligodendroglia cell differentiation were determined by immunofluorescence. The mRNA expression of Notch 1 and its target genes Mash 1 and Neurogenin 2 were assessed by RT-PCR. Results The neurosphere displayed Nestin and Sox 2-postive by immunofluorescence, suggesting that the cultured cells were NSCs. Osthole promoted NSCs differentiating into more neuron(P<0. 01) and oligodendrocyte(P<0. 05), but not astrocyte. Meanwhile, osthole significantly reduced the mRNA expression of Notch 1(P<0. 01) and increased Ngn 2(P<0. 01)at the dose of 100 μmol·L-1. Conclusion Osthole enhances NSCs differentiating into more neuron and oligodendrocyte via probablly inhibiting Notch signal pathway.

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effects of osthole ( Ost) on the ability of proliferation and differentiation in APP transduced neural stem cells( NSCs) , and neu-ronal apoptosis, in order to find related mechanism. Methods A model of Alzheimer′s disease( AD) cells was successfully established by transducing APP gene into NSCs in vitro. The ability of proliferation and dif-ferentiation was tested by staining. The viability of NSCs was determined by using CCK-8 assay. The cell apoptosis was tested by Hoechst 33258 staining. The expression of GSK-3β and β-catenin mRNA was deter-mined by RT-PCR. The expression of GSK-3β and β-catenin protein was determined by Western blot. Re-sults The ability of proliferation had increased by 10 . 24% with Ost treatment, compared with APP group. The ability of differentiation had increased by 6 . 74%with Ost treatment, compared with APP group. The vi-ability of NSCs had increased and cell apoptotic rate had decreased significantly. From the results of RT-PCR and Western blot, we could find the expression of GSK-3βmRNA and protein had decreased, and the ex-pression of β-catenin mRNA and protein had increased significantly, compared with APP group. Conclusion Ost could enhance the ability of proliferation and dif-ferentiation into more neurons of NSCs transducing APP gene, and reduce neuronal apoptosis. It might be relat-ed with activiting Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cells have self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation potential, but under normal circumstances, the number of neural stem cells is less, and most cells are in the resting state. Thus, to promote the proliferation of neural stem cells is the key to the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of osthole on the proliferation of neural stem cells cultured in vitro, and to analyze its mechanism underlying promoting the proliferation. METHODS:Neural stem cells were cultured in vitro, and passage 3 cells were cultured with different concentrations of osthole(10, 50 and 100μmol/L). After 24 hours, cellvitality was determined by cellcounting kit-8. After 3, 5, 7 days of further culture, the radius of neurospheres was measured, and Ki67-positive cells were counted by immunofluorescence staining. Meanwhile, after 3 days of further culture, the gene expression of Notch 1, Hes 1 and Mash 1 in neural stem cells was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, 50, 100μmol/L osthole could obviously promote the proliferation ability of neural stem cells. 100μmol/L osthole had the most significant effect and increased the expression of Notch 1 gene, Hes 1 gene, but it had no effect on Mash 1 gene. These results suggest that osthole can promote proliferation of neural stem cells cultured in vitro and its mechanism may be associated with activation of Notch 1 gene and Hes 1 gene in Notch signaling pathway.
